Digital camera reviews of RCA/MSN TV 2 Internet and Media Player

Digital camera Review: USELESS piece of JUNK!! DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY!!
Summary: 1 Stars

I'm writing this review from my regular computer because I could not on the MSN TV2 piece of junk.

I'm not even sure how an item like this gets sold to the public. It's almost like an Attorney General should get involved. You can't watch ANY video from websites like Hulu, TMZ, etc. If you try to read comments from an article or post a comment (no video involved), good luck! Sometimes it will work sometimes it won't. Try reading a news article, the system will either freeze up or just cut off.

You would think that if they are not willing to keep their system updated they wouldn't sell this piece of junk. It's really and awful, awful, awful system and a complete waste of money.

I complained directly to the company twice but really doubt they will do anything about it. If they do and anything changes, I will be the first one to give a better review. It is too bad that this is such a crappy system because the concept is so cool. If another company came out with something better, I bet it would do well.

I wish I had read these reviews before I bought they system. MSN TV2 offers a good deal to kinda rope you in. However, it's really not worth it. For the frustration and time wasted, I feel like they owe me money.

HEED THIS WARNING!!!
